Why Do I have dog scratch with no symptoms?
1 month ago a pet dog scratched me after washing the area with soap there is no mark, redness etc till now so I don't have to worry right
Dermatologist
Answered on 12th Sept '24
No mark or redness from that dog scratch seems good. But pet scratches sometimes let bacteria get in the skin. Look out if it swells up, hurts, or oozes pus. For now, keep washing it clean with soap and water. But if those issues pop up, get medical advice from a dermatologist.

You can start by using a benzoyl peroxide facewash.

I'm suffering with ringworm infection since 2 years ago shortly it's gone now 1 months ago it's starting again it's very painful in my local area there are not good doctors.
Female | 22
Ringworm is a skin disease that is caused by a fungus. In this way, the skin can turn red, be itchy, and feel suffering as a result of its injury. You can use the antifungal creams sold at the pharmacy to treat the ringworm. Make sure to clean and dry the area. Personal items like towels should not be shared. If it doesn't get better, you should consider getting help from a dermatologist.

I am 15 year old female and my lower face is darker than my upper face. It's not pigmentation or pimple patches. It's totally darker than my upper face. It starts from my chubby chicks to jawline
Female | 15
You might have a medical condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can sometimes cause the lower face to be darker than the rest. It's not dangerous but could be a sign of something more serious, like insulin resistance, that is happening inside your body. You can fix this by eating cleaner, being active, and maintaining skin health. Furthermore, consume a lot of water.

Sun exposure can darken the skin. Some medications can also cause the skin to darken. It's important to protect your skin from the sun and use a good cream recommended by a dermatologist. Your skin will heal if you take proper care of it. Some people's skin turns dark from too much sun, while others may experience darkening due to illness. Keep your skin safe from the sun and any injuries. Apply the cream prescribed by the dermat, and your skin will improve.

My toe nails are changing to a yellow color..also I have skin peeling between my toes and it hurts very much.. can you prescribe me anything for it..I'm guessing it's athletes feet and toe nails fungus
Female | 40
Your symptoms sound like athlete’s foot and toenail fungus. An athlete’s foot can cause your nails to turn yellow, make the skin on your feet peel off, and make your toes hurt. The fungus that leads to athlete’s foot loves warm, damp areas – like sweaty feet. You can use over-the-counter antifungal creams on your skin and nails to treat it. Also, try to keep your feet clean and dry so they are less appealing to the fungus.

Hlw sir .my face is black head problem
Male | 24
It may be a case where you have a lot of blackheads on your face, but it's not the case. Blackheads are little, dark lumps that come to the skin when hair follicles get clogged with too much oil and dead skin cells. You may realize that they are small, black superficial bumps. To solve this problem, cleanse your face regularly with a mild cleanser and use salicylic acid products to open your pores. Also, avoid squeezing or picking as it can cause more problems on the skin. Instead, if you have a problem with them, you should consult a dermatologist for a solution.

Male | 30
You may be suffering from a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can lead to the problem of open wounds and eczema on the penis. These signs might be a clue to a syndrome called herpes or genital warts. These infections can be spread from one person to another through sexual contact. Diagnosis and treatment should be done by a sexologist. It is the best decision to put away sexual activity until you visit a doctor.

I had a scar on face slightly below the left eye. I want to know the procedure for scar removal/ laser treatment
Male | 25
Scars can result from acne, injury, independent surgical procedure, or pox. A dermatologist will be able to prescribe various solutions ranging from ointments, to injections, dermabrasion, chemical peel, laser and even surgery, to be able to treat it. Same will depend on the extent to which your scar is raised above your skin, or how dark it happens to be. While I think that CO2 laser or MNRF (Microneedling radiofrequency, a kind of cosmetic surgery) could help you, but no proper conclusion can be reached without prior consultation. Please refer to a dermatologist for this!

Hi doctors, My mother who is 50 yrs old is facing excessive sweating from 2 years, we hve checked her BP, sugar and thyroid which are normal, but I'm not understanding which doctor to consult regarding this excessive sweating.
Female | 50
Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is annoying. The reasons for the sweating can be other than normal BP, sugar, and thyroid of your mother. The medications, menopause, stress, or health problems that are hidden might lead to such a situation. A dermatologist with a focus on skin problems will be the best choice. They can help pinpoint the cause of the sweating and recommend treatments.

Sir/madam My chaild foot had heavy cracks what is the solution to this
Male | 9
It is important to keep your child’s feet clean and dry to prevent infection and cracking. A dermatologist or podiatrist can best determine and treat the condition. However, the best solution for cracked feet is to keep your feet hydrated and moisturized. This can be done by using lotions and creams specifically designed for cracked feet. You can also soak your feet in warm water with Epsom salts or other moisturizing oils such as olive oil or coconut oil.

Dry or frizzy Hair ko kaise sahi kare is recommended oil and shamphoo
Male | 18
Are you troubled by dry and frizzy hair? Signs include coarse, tangled strands lacking shine. This could be due to dryness or harsh products. To help, use coconut oil if your hair is oily, and opt for sulfate-free shampoos. Also, avoid washing with hot water. These steps should help you achieve silky, soft hair.

Rash around genital area and pain
Male | 27
A rash around there can be caused by lots of things such as a fungal infection or even being allergic to the soap or laundry detergent you use. If you have this itchy rash, it might hurt too because the skin is raw from all the scratching. To make things better, try using mild unscented soap and wearing loose cotton underwear. If these suggestions don’t work then please see a dermatologist who can give you some proper advice on what to do next.

More big Pimple on face and black spot and white spots
Male | 19
Pimples are the result of clogged pores due to oil and dead skin. Dirt or oil that is entrapped may be the reason for the formation of black and white spots. For help, the best way to go is to wash your face delicately two times every day, use products that are oil free. However, if it persists consult a dermatologist right away.
